Thuraya Orion IP

Thuraya Orion IP is a product specifically designed for the maritime environment which provides IP connectivity for users at speeds of up to 444kbps.

Orion is the only L-Band Satellite terminal of its type in the market that can achieve such high streaming rates on the move. Other terminals in the market achieve a maximum of 256kbps, with
limitations.

Description Details

It consists of a Below Deck Unit (BDU) which can be installed anywhere inside the ship and a 3D stabilized above decks unit (ADU) connected together by a single RF cable.

There is one power connection on the BDU. This must be connected to a 12 or 24Vdc supply. Minimum Voltage input is 10V, Maximum Voltage is 32V, Total current from Antenna to BDU (Max @12V) is 12A,
Required Fuse is 15A (fast blow, ATO blade fuse)

Standard IP of up to 444kbps (receive), 404kbps (send)

Streaming IP 384kbps

4 x Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) ports (according to IEE 802.3af)

802.11b/g/n wireless LAN WPA2 access point

All four Ethernet interfaces support up to 15 Watts of power to each PoE powered device. The total power supplied by the PoE is limited to 30W maximum for 12V installations. The BDU automatically
detects the class of the device plugged in and will apply power so that the total cannot exceed these limits. If the user attempts to connect a combination of devices that require more than this, the
BDU will not power any devices that would cause the limit to be exceeded.

The Orion IP ADU is equipped with an auto-tracking system capable of pointing and tracking the Thuraya satellite automatically within the satellite region selected. An independent GPS receiver is
incorporated inside the Antenna used for satellite beam selection and autonomous UT initiated beam-beam handover.

The Thuraya coverage footprint covers more than two-thirds of the globe across 160 countries in Asia, Africa, Australia, Europe and Middle East. It also covers a vast majority of the
world’s shipping lanes.

Two types of broadband data services are available, Standard IP and Streaming IP.

Standard IP, also known as Background IP or Variable Bit Rate (VBR) offers up to 444kbps receive speed and transmit speed on a shared mode or best effort basis.

Orion IP is a true plug and play device. The browser on your PC that supports Java can be used to operate this terminal and it will simply work out of the box. To get the best out of the
product Thuraya recommends the use of value added services that have been optimized for use over a satellite link. There is a vast array of solutions available in the market to suit every
requirement. Please consult with your Thuraya service partner for more information.
